I'm really going to do better this time.....

Im always get excited about starting this blog thing and then just being to tired and busy to keep it up is always my problem! But I am going to do better this time...PROMISE!! We just got home from Orange Beach on Sunday..we had a great time, just too short..we usually go for a week but since we are going to Disney World in September, we just decided to do a short trip and save our money for Disney.....It is so hard to believe that school is starting in a little under 4 weeks..we have so much to do before then...today I spent a FORTUNE on the kids uniforms for school...my sweet little Annellise has really outgrown EVERYTHING, so I had to buy it all for her...luckily Harper can still fit in his shorts I just have to get him pants because the ones he has are TOO short...my sweet boy just gets taller and taller everyday but can still wear a 5 year olds pants in the waist.ha...he is SOOO skinny..( I wish I had that problem)
Annellise gets her cast off hopefully on Tuesday the 22nd...since it is her right arm she has not been able to write at all, so we really need it off so she can start practicing again before school starts...it has been WONDERFUL having a "swim cast" on ....it has been better for us all....she would cry and cry when we wanted to swim and she couldnt so it ruined everybodys time and it broke my heart! She has been a trooper though...much better than I was 3 yrs ago when I broke my wrist...mine itched and hurt all the time..she has only complained of it itching 1 time...praise God that children can handle situations like that so much better....
This weekend we are off to another baseball tournament...we are having so much fun this season playing with his team...he has such great kids and even if they win or lose it doesnt matter to them, they just love to play and that is really what it is all about! Saturday morning his games start at 9...followed by another at 12...then if we win or lose will decide the times of the next games...the only problem is it is SOOO HOT!!! Luckily the paper said the high for Sat. is in the high 80s so I might can handle that! it is on Lakeland drive so we will be able to come home in the afternoon if time allows and he can rest and "cool down"...
We missed Church tonight and I am so sad....Bert has strep throat and I have had a terrible headache since yesterday...I was really looking forward to going.. I love going on Wednesday nights...its so personal, i just love it....I am going to be a new aunt any day now....I cant wait...another little boy whose name will be Nate...I love calling him "baby Nate" for some reason so who knows if that will stick...he has a big sister named Presley and we are wanting her to come and stay sometime in the next few weeks so Erin can get some rest and adjust to having 2 children under the age of 2 1/2!!!
